Go do this in Cuba. People are getting fed up with it here.

I used to wear a baseball cap when in the sun to honor my favorite teams.

No more.

I still wear hats, but no more baseball caps.

When the fans stop putting up with the nonsense and quit watching, buying tickets and the merchandise, they will either return to the game or go extinct.

Pro team sports are dead to me.

Maybe they could add an hour or so to the games and dedicate it to struggle sessions for fans. The oppressed millionaires could lead it.

Yucko. Glad that I got to instead grow up with the annual trips to Expos games with the Carlsberg brass band in the stadium lobby and the concessions people calling out beer and hot dogs in both official languages, lol.

It’s a race to the bottom. Given that how bad are things going to be in 1 year? In 5 years? In 10?

Who appointed them to be everybody’s conscience?

As if the left has any moral basis to be able to make that claim.

The MLB was dying long before their moronic all stars debacle. They are just going to sink even faster.

“ n his own words, they would "be responsible for preclearing all local, state and federal public policies ”

Gotta hand it to the Libs they really swing for the fences with their “policies”

Used to be a big fan of MLB and NFL.

Stopped entirely.

Get woke, go broke.

When do they start organizing seating by skin color?

I know there are guys here who haven’t watched an MLB game since 1928 or so. I can’t match that record. But I can say that I haven’t watched any MLB games since 2019. This year I haven’t checked the standings or box scores even once.

It’s actually rather easy to stop following MLB.

A search came up with the following:

Commissioner of Baseball Rob Manfred salary
He makes $11 million a year with annual raises built into his contract through 2024,
He has a net worth of $30 million

Taxpayers pay for the stadiums.

I drove through Boston last weekend on my way to a NH camping trip. As I passed Fenway Park on I-90, I saw the giant BLM sign across the back of the bleachers.

I lived in Boston much of my life (moved out of there for good about 10 years ago) and went to literally hundreds of games at that park. I remember as a kid getting a bleacher seat for $1.75 with my newspaper route money and scoring the game with a number 2 pencil (that I bought for a quarter with the program). It was a nice way to spend an afternoon and I went to pretty much every home weekend game (including doubleheaders) during the mid to late 1970s as Fenway was just a few subway stops from my childhood home.

I will never step into that ballpark ever again. But at least I will have my memories.

MLB seems intent on driving its fans away. I’m an old-time seam-head and they’ve certainly driven me away. To hell with ‘em.
